A very good thing it's nearing Halloween then, methinks.

Seriously, that's the most terrifying thing I think I've ever seen

I have a request to make here. Not for a pan, but a tutorial that I can give to someone else on a different forum describeing just how to effectively do these wonders we have done many times ourselves.
I would really appreciate it if someone could work up a simple tutorial that others can understand and put to use themselves.
Thank You in advance to whomever does this.

Would this be good enough?

For those who don't want to look for it in the Image Editing Tutorials thread, I've posted it here:

-------------------------------

Panoramic pictures are fun to do, especially when you get to see the completed picture. I like to make pans a lot from various series. In this tutorial, you will learn how to create a pan of your very own. When you see a certain series, there are times where the scene would scroll either up or down, left or right, or diagonally.

Find a scene that would be great for making a pan. I have some images of one big picture for you to try out. Depending of the image you are trying to make, it may take more or less parts of the pan. In this case, this pan has two parts to it.



When working with DVD VOB files, you may have to resize the image to their original aspect ratio. In this case, the two images are from a widescreen master, so I resized the images to 853x480 and cropped the black bars later. For full screen masters, 640x480 is the default resolution. If you're not using DVD VOB files to take screenshots, this doesn't apply to you.

Open up The GIMP, and go to File --> New. Seeing as the image is scrolling horizontally, I would leave the height the same size as the original pictures. However, the width would have to be modified to fit the completed picture. If the picture was scrolling vertically, it would be the opposite. Don't worry if your guess is incorrect; you will crop the image after you have completed the pan.

In this case, the new image will be 1500x480 pixels:



Making a pan is a lot easier than it looks. However, it's very easy to make a mistake on them, so take your time, and make sure that it looks right for you. Open up the first image and press Ctrl-A (or Edit --> Select All). Next, press Ctrl-C (or Edit --> Copy) to copy the image into memory. Then, go to the new image you created, and press Ctrl-V (or Edit --> Paste). Click on the selection tool (first icon on the top left) to move the selection to the right place. If you need any help, go to View --> View Grid (see first image). This grid will help you place the image in the right place. If you need even more help, go to View --> Snap to Grid so that the selection will snap to the grid, perventing you from making a mistake. The selection should be on the right side (see second image).



Now, open up the second image, and repeat the same steps that you did last time (or make a smaller selection if you don't need the entire image). Continue this process until the pan picture is complete (see the image below to check if you are on the right track).



Some tips when creating pans:
  • It's very easy to make a mistake when making a pan, so start slowly so that you don't make a mistake that you can't fix.
  • Sometimes, Snap to Grid works against you, so disable if you are having trouble making pans.
  • Don't worry if you make a mistake. Simply press Ctrl-Z (or Edit --> Undo) to undo the mistake, and start over.
  • It helps to zoom in if you have trouble trying to make a pan work.
  • Sometimes, you may have to start a pan from a different direction. For example, if going up gives you trouble, try starting the pan from the top.

Seeing as my width prediction was way off, I will now select only the image using the selection tool, and crop the image by going to Image --> Crop Image (see image). Another option would be to go to Image --> Autocrop Image to let The GIMP automatically crop the extra space out for you.



Now is a good time to do any modifications, such as changing the contrast, adding in text, etc. Here is what the final image should look like:



That's it for this tutorial. You now have the skills needed to create a pan of your very own.

The less tech-savvy can instead attempt to create pans by using Print Screen and Paint to line up the pixels Tongue

Not exactly precise and complex, but it can and does work Wink

True, just about everything I've made up here has been used with Microsoft Paint to one degree to another.

What a wonderful program it is.
Peace.

Well, Wingnut did want an effective tutorial, lol. Tongue I guess I've been using The GIMP for so long that I don't find it complex and hard to use at all.

Random Gintama pans...and a Keroro Gunso pan I forgot I did ^^; ...all off of youtube...

Keroro Gunso:
Episode 12


_________________________________

Gintama:
Mr. Raindrop (ending 2)
The next to the last one was hard to do. Please ignore the song subtitles on that one...and the fact I had to edit the shadows in PSP. And yes the last one is a pan even though it doesn't look like one...



Episode 24
Behold my first uneven pan! Yay!

Great job on the pans, Asirt. Here's a pan from Sarutobi Ecchan:

Oh, Gunslinger Girl and very nice pans on the series, Asirt.

Also, this is my favorite one. Just something about the expression on her face, with the knife sticking out of her as well of course.
Peace.

Yeah. Claes is my second favorite character in the series. Big Grin

More Gintama pans, this time of the 4th ending. Sorry for the size, quality, and repeating song subtitles at the bottoms of some of the pans. It couldn't be helped. Just be glad I able to go around the credits. The best one in my opinion is the second one. No subtitles whatsoever.
